He just snaps out of it and walks out of the house.

In 1949, with Collier Young, Lupino founded a production company. They produced films on controversial issues & she directed their 1st project:

NOT WANTED (1949)

It was about abortion & it was Lupino's directorial debut, though he was uncredited.

Meg Marsh (1965-1980)

Joan Fontaine tied the knot with:
Brian Aherne ​(1939-1945)​
William Dozier ​(1946-1951)​
Collier Young (1952-1961)​
Alfred Wright Jr. ​(1964-1969)

Compare Ida, Collier, & Joan in this regard to Robert Ryan, who wed Jessica Cadwalader (1939-1972) & they had 3 children.

I suppose this used to be somewhat common back then, itinerant workers when the economy tanked.

He is so proud of his work and is kind. It's almost a Dr. Jekyll-type trance that makes him go off the rails. When he snaps out of it, you can see someone who wants love and acceptance.
